It has been lovely spending the last ten days sampling the north east coastline of the USA - Boston and Newport (Rhode Island), New York, Portland (Maine) and Bar Harbour, but it's lovely to get out of the heat, hussle and bustle, ratrace and queuing and feel the cool air flowing into our cabin on board "Aurora" as we set sail, via a couple more Canadian ports, for home. Lisa and I have never taken a holiday of over a fortnight before (and that was exceptional) and at home we have plenty of space to be within each other's orbits, whilst not being in each other's pockets. So some concern on how this would go. We needn't have worried, though!   Here's come pictures from the USA, and here's hoping you'll have me back.

Can you place which picture is which of the visits listed above?
